Introduction: The relationship between SNPs of the FSHR gene and serum FSH has not been completely clarified. Genetic variants of the FSHB gene have been associated to variation in gene transcription and to serum FSH levels in men. An interesting joint effect of both FSHB −211G>T and FSHR 2039 A>G on male reproductive parameters has been recently observed. No data have been published on the effect of the FSHB −211G>T in combination with the FSHR 2039 A&...
